County's debris removal program gets six-month extension

The Colorado State Office of Emergency Management is issuing a six-month extension for FEMA's right-of-way debris removal program in Larimer County, according to county spokeswoman Deni LaRue.

The debris clean-up program was scheduled to end on March 12, but that deadline will now be extended, as funding allows.

"We are actively trying to clear the debirs before the peak spring run off the decrease further risk of damage or destruction," a county release reads. "Therefore we encourage community members to clear their properties of debris as soon as possible."
